600 tons are foreign and 3,l3o,000 tons inland and

FREIGirs. The Freight Circular of snow & Bur
CESS, New York, for the week ending March 18th
says Lumber tonnage to the River Plate is in de
mand. From Boston and Portland Il few large
vessels now here have been taken up at S9a 80 80,
but for medium size $l0is quoted by owners. Ton
mage to load South is also wanted but as desirable
| above SI3 the business passing is small. The
| Brazil trade is vet quiet. 4 baruue hence via
Richmond has been taken at 50 cents per bbl. for
Flour. Interest in Cuba Sugar freights is increas
| Ing, and previous rates are quoted firm. The
WlndWard trade is in fair condition desirable ton
mage, however, is in light supply, and owners arc
| strong in their ideas. There is considerable in
| quiry for tonnage to load Logwood at West Ind,
ports but vessels have been attracted to the Sugar
| trade and shippers meet with some difficulty in
| filling wants at satisfactory rates In coastWiSe
Lumber freights there is less doing, and as the
| Coal trade offers little employment the moment
| the tonnage supply is said to be somewhat larger
this causes a slightly easier feeling as to rates
Coal freights are dull at the minimum rates of the
